The Old Woman and The Parking Lot
"It's not a perfect metaphor..." -Dr. Horrible
It was raining that day I left the gym. The tarmac hosted the usual cast of rainy day characters: people running through the parking lot, people ducking under newspapers and magazines to avoid getting wet, people who remembered their umbrellas, and those people who didn't mind getting wet.
In the mix, I watched a little car turn into the parking lot and head towards the front row closest to the gym.
What happened next is something we've all seen before or have experienced ourselves. Across from where I was standing I could see the perfect parking spot, right across from the entrance to the gym, ideal on any day.
"This guy lucked out," I thought to myself.
However, as the car approached it turned prematurely, and ended up in a space farther down the lot. And, as it turned, it revealed another car behind it. Having turned prematurely, the first car unknowingly yielded the better parking spot to another car.
When my parents bought the land where they built the house I grew up in, there was only a small pear orchard.
The old woman who owned the land had originally purchased it when her husband was still alive. They planned on retiring on this lot of land, building a cottage, and spending their summers by the beach.
But one day her husband got sick. Treatment for his illness drained some of the money they spent a lifetime saving, and then he died. She still had enough money to build the cottage and retire, but she didn't. Instead the old woman sold the land and moved away to live with her daughter.
These stories are dance partners.

Another video for the Alan Evans Trio, because Alan Evans is pretty much one of the coolest guys you'll ever meet.
Other Updates: I've also been doing some work for musician Todd Carey, and when I'm not doing music video/promo work, I've been helping some local filmmakers put together a few projects. More on that later.

20120424 Latest Music Video
Here's the performance version of the latest music video I've been working on. The Official Music Video will drop on May 1st.
You'll notice that there's something curious and dreamy about the movements in this video. This is because we shot the video
at 60fps and then slowed it down in post. And, yes, this means that we had to speed up the song in order to compensate for the
lip movement of the poor artists, who had to sing their song at double time.
Nevertheless, I think it turned out cool and even better in the Official Video, so stay tuned for that.
